[hide]Introduction
Pirate "User pages" are areas where anyone can put just about anything they want. Currently, the YPPedia has very little restrictions on what you can put there. As long as you keep your user page acceptable for people of all ages, it will be permitted.
Start your own
To start editting your user page, simply click on your username near the top right corner of the page. Initially your name will be in red text, this simply indicates the page currently doesnt exist.
Guidelines
While the content of your User page is entirely upto you many users follow certain guide lines
- By including some basic information about themselves
- Perhaps the real-life character or more commonly
- Extra information about your main pirate (possibly including a portrait)
- By including what they are currently working on in the Yppedia
- Mentioning important achievements (familars, OM status etc)
- Mentioning the users language preferance (see Help:Language for further information)
Some note worthy examples
Some start up code
If you would like some thing simple to start with (and perhaps play around with) simply copy the below code into your user page and replace the text with your information.
{| <!-- Start Table Code --> style="float:right;"
|- <!-- New table row -->
| Pirate Name
|-
| Member of crew
|-
| Ocean you play on
|-
| Picture of your pirate
|} <!-- End Table -->
And remember if you see something you like on somebody elses User page, simply press the edit button and see how they did it.
User_talk pages
In addition to your user page you are also given a Talk page. This is generally where people will leave you messages and you can reply to messages here also.
